KAW~LIGA, was a wooden Indian
standing by the door..
He fell in love with an Indian maid
over in the antique store
KAW~LIGA... just stood there
and never let it show
So she could never answer "YES" or "NO"...

He always wore his Sunday feathers
and held a tomahawk...
The maiden wore her beads and braids
and hoped someday he'd talk
KAW~LIGA.. too stubborn
to ever show a sign...
Because his heart was made of knotty pine...

Poor ol' KAW~LIGA,
he never got a kiss
Poor ol' KAW~LIGA,
he don't know what he missed..
Is it any wonder that his face is red?..
KAW~LIGA, that poor ol' wooden head...

KAW~LIGA, was a lonely Indian
never went nowhere
His heart was set on the Indian maiden
with the coal black hair
KAW~LIGA... just stood there
and never let it show
So she could never answer "YES" or "NO"...

Then one day a wealthy customer
bought the Indian maid
And took her, oh, so far away
but ol' KAW~LIGA stayed
KAW~LIGA just stands there
as lonely as can be
And wishes he was still an old pine tree....
